[DL] Deadlands and D&D3E



Howdy y'all;
Well I have come up with a great campaign combining both elements of D&D3E 
and Deadlands(Though I would personally prefer a pure Deadlands 
campaign<sigh>). Using the Yuan-Ti as the Catalysts in releasing the Manitous 
spirit, initially, the high priests of Vara, the goddess of nightmares and 
fear, she was the one who directed the Shamans of her order to go out and 
release the evil spirits whom were sealed deep in the tropical jungle of 
Hepmonoland within a place called the forbidden city................they 
destroyed the seal's of four ancient relics and then entered the astral plane 
to do battle with the guardians of the evil spirits, the guardians were 
defeated and the abominations rushed forth into the world of Greyhawk. At 
first the shamans thought they could control this vast multitude of spirits 
and abominations and direct them at their hated enemy, the Scarlet 
Brotherhood, but it was not to be, the four shamans were charged by Vara to 
watch over the Spirit gate for eternity, this did not make the shamans happy 
one bit, but orders are orders.
Around this time CY564, the lands of Greyhawk were in a major civil war, the 
southern half vs the northern half. Old Jeb Stewart, a half elf cavalry 
commander for the Yeomanary confederacy
could not believe his eyes as  dead knights of both the Dutchy of Geoff and 
the Yeomanary rose
to fight again. And so the world of Greyhawk settled into an uneasy truce to 
deal with this new threat..........
I'm assuming of course that most people on this list have heard of D&D and 
Greyhawk ; )
As of now I ma turning all edge's into feats, I have the Iron dragons, trains 
that travel the ethreal
plane on tracks of bone and stop in various parts of Greyhawk city's and 
villages. The elf's all speak in a southern twang as well as most humans and 
the Dwarfs have the newyork accent going, there aint no Dwarf king, he da 
Godfather!
My players love it and they are now even getting into the accents and old 
western sayings. Sadly, they still prefer D&D over Deadlands, but they don't 
mind the old west overtones. Anyhow, I thought the above might help someone 
make a truly twisted D&D or wacky deadlands campaign.
BTW I love South o' the boarder and I ran "This Harrowed Ground" last week. 
Great adventure!
I'll get notes up on it if you guy's want them.

Yippee ay yaaaa
